JAMES:

Ask me no questions I tell you no lies

Dawes.

MANSFIELD MIKE:

My mum says I got more than a passing

resemblance to Prince...

ALL SHOUT:

Shut up!

BAZ VEGAS:

Come on Smurf, let's see your rusty

bullet hole.

FINGERS:

Yeah man!

SMURF:

Alright, alright. Check it boys,

gather round, gather round.

They all gather round and Smurf pulls down the front of his trousers

to show them his scar.

James starts to head off and Molly runs to catch up with him.

MOLLY:

Excuse me sir, if it is the ginger ninja

then why haven't we had royal security

round to check everything?

JAMES:

I haven't said who it is, have I Dawes.

MOLLY:

It is him, I can tell with you being

all coy... like you're not supposed to

say anything but you can't help it. I'm

like that.

James laughs. Molly watches him with a smile on her face as he

heads over to the make-shift camp gym.

Smurf heads over to Molly.

SMURF:

The doctor at Bastion says the medic

has to rub baby oil into my bullet hole

every hour or I die.

MOLLY:

Looks like you're gonna die then.

SMURF:

Charming. Cuppa tea?

MOLLY:

You owe me more than that!

She follows Smurf as he heads over to the kitchen area.

SMURF:

That's true. Saving my life has gotta

be worth at least a cuppa tea and a bacon

buttie.

MOLLY:

Don't push it mate, your life ain't

worth a whole bacon buttie!

SMURF:

(suddenly serious)

I'm there for you Molls.

He looks at her earnestly, which makes Molly burst out laughing.

SMURF (CONT'D)

What?

MOLLY:

Nothing, it's just that whenever

anyone says 'I'm there for you'... it

just makes me laugh. It's just one of

them expressions, innit.

SMURF:

Yeah, I'm just letting you know like...

if you need me...

MOLLY:

You're there.

SMURF:

Yeah.

MOLLY:

For me.

Molly laughs again, but turns and watches James as he takes his

top off to begin a workout. Smurf follows her gaze.

SMURF:

(clocking her looking)

So you got him to like you now then?

MOLLY:

(slightly snappy)

What you talking about?

SMURF:

Well, you know, he was a bit sort of...

off-ish with you..

MOLLY:

Are you making that tea or what?

Smurf turns to find another mug and tea bag. Molly has another

little glance towards James who is now lifting weights.

06:59 EXT/INT. MASTIFF ARMOURED VEHICLE

Dangleberries is on the gun at the top of the tank.

Molly sits in between Smurf and James, all in full body armour,

helmets and goggles and holding their weapons.

JAMES:

Kinders, if you go left and hug the poppy

fields we can get into the village that

way.

KINDERS:

Sir. Swinging left here.
